Getting Married at 16 :)

[Romerogjrl]

Somebody else married young???? I'm getting married next month I'm pregnant really excited and happy he does everything to keep me happy  I love him so much
Lot of people said we're too young but that doesn't mean we can stay together forever .

Being a mother is harder than being married, is the thing.  If you don't think you're ready for marriage,  you are no where near ready to parent.

I think that when you're young and pregnant you are focused on childbirth and baby showers and baby care.  Babies grow up FAST and get much harder to parent FAST.  You have to be so mature,  and so completely ready for responsibility when that happens.

If you think you're only ready for parenting but not mature enough for marriage,  you have the two things reversed,  in my opinion.

I see all these people saying they have been with there significant other since they were 12,13,14. I just think why? Lol I wasn't thinking about a relationship at all that age I was focused on my education. I'm not judging anyone but its crazy to think being in a relationship that young. People can find true love young and if you honestly can see a future and a family with this man then get married! It shouldn't matter of age. Best of luck to you!

I agree with shawna! A piece of paper... a document should not change the way you feel about each other.

I've been with my husband since I was 14 (2005) I've lived with him since 2006 which when we had our son. we got married in 2008 and at that point we had a son together and then in 2010 we had a daughter and now we are having our third child and still together. I don't see how marriage is any different than just being boyfriend girlfriend. I'm also the type that even when we were boyfriend girlfriend things were ours not his and mine but that's just how I am. I always hated the question how's married life to me it was no different than before. That's my opinion. Good luck wish you the best.

Think of it this way because I did before I got married me and my husband knew each other for years friends then we hooked up about a year into it he asked me to marry him I was 18 when he asked we waited a year then got married I was 19 I am now 20 and having a baby marriage is great and I wouldn't trade all the arguments and the cleaning and cooking and taking care of him for the world but you are young I don't doubt y'all are in love I believe it but how about just staying engaged for a year or two set up the wedding you truly want get past the hard first two years of being a parent the late nights and stuff if y'all love each other more than life then y'all have forever to get married finish high school first cause being a mom and highschool will be hard enough you won't want the stress of school work a new born and having to take care of a man they might pay the bills but us women are the ones that really take care of them

Lived with my parents**

Getting married helped me a lot because of my own unique situation. I haven't luved eith my oarents since I was 14 and on and off the streets since I was 11. I was tired of getting thrown around place to place and living with different people. Emancipation has helped me greatly because I have rights and I can now make for a stable life.

[LillyM321]

We married because I was pregnant. I ended up having a miscarriage but we still married and then he wanted a baby so a month later I got pregnant.

[LillyM321]

I got married at 16 in Texas on my husband's 22nd birthday last year in July. I'm now 36 weeks pregnant. (: and we are still married ;p

[sembkc2006]

Me and my fiance have been together for almost 8 years and I am only 20. We have been together since I was 13. I would have married him back then if I could of. We are now planning our wedding for sept of 2015, due to baby arriving in November!

[Estherrr]

Got marries at 18. Moved in with my now husband at 16.

[ldorey3]

I got married before I turned 20. May 2012. Cant believe its been 2 years already

[charmaine22]

Im 22 I met my boyfriend at age 15 and he was 17. Were having our  first baby who is due May 10th. So 7 years together and we are deeply in love living with each other. We havent even consider marrying each other, we talked about it but we wanna wait til were really sure. Its best to not run things fast especially if having a baby doesnt mean you have to get married. But if you think your ready and that you both know each other very well then go for it. Congratulations btw :)

[crystalrcastle]

I met my fiance when I was 16 and he was 20. We have a beautiful son and another one due next month. We arent married yet but thats the plan within the next couple of years. We have been together for 3 1/2 years and just bought a house together last august!

[blessedleticia]

Way too young!

[stinaann93]

I married four months after my 18th birthday

[sutton19]

Marrige is not hard work.  Maybe it is for some people, but It ain't for me an my hubby.  Of course we have our ups and downs, everyone does. But it's NOT hard work to us because we love each other unconditionally.  We get along great! We've lived together ever since my mom passed away when I was 15.  We got our own place together 4 months later an I married him two months before I turned 18:) this is our first baby an we couldn't be more happier! :D congrats btw!! :)))

[MamaAsha18]

The way I see it is if y'all love each other then do it. My fiance and I are getting married next week. We have been together for 5 years and have known each other for 10 years. He is 23 and I am 20. We live together and do everything together. It has to be an equal partnership. So congrats to you and your soon to be husband.

[MommaKelleyy]

I know yall are trying to convince her that young marriages last but most don't, and just because someone is married  for 4 years or 10 doesn't mean something can't happen down the road. There are people that would be married for 20 something years then end up getting a divorce. I get you're in love, I thought I was in love with someone at 15 dated him for about 4 years and ended up marrying someone else I dated in high school. But in the end its going to be up to the both of you no matter what people say.

If its OK to be a teen mom why would it not be OK to be a teen bride? Marriage is hard at any age! You just have to be committed and work through it.

I have been with my husband for seven years this year and barely got married. I believe it depends on the people. We waited but I'm happy we finally tied the not. We have also been together since he was 15 n I was 17

Marriage IS hard work...whether you're with the most amazing man on the planet or not. My husband is my world, I absolutely adore him and am thankful for him every day. He is faithful, he is supportive, kind, silly, and my best friend. It is STILL work sometimes. It's not filled with sunshine and rainbows 24/7. No marriage is like that, because we are human. Humans do not get along all the time, agree on absolutely everything, not go through rough times emotionally, financially, physically, etc. don't be unrealistic, she needs to hear truth.
